RCMP are asking for help in finding a woman who disappearedfrom theKenaston area.

They say Sheree Fertuck left her family's farm early Mondayafternoon driving a gravel truck and that's the last time anyone saw the 51yearold.

The semi-truck was found the next morning at a gravel pit near the town.

Her mother, Juliann Sorotski, fears her daughter may have been abducted.

Sorotski said Fertuck lives in Saskatoon but earns her living hauling gravel and works from the Sorotski farm.

She became worried when Fertuck did not come backMonday night. The next morning Sorotski drove to the gravel pit, fearing what she might find.

"I found the truck and the loader parked," Sorotski recounted. "And I went over to the truck and tried the door. It was open and I looked inside. I was totally expecting to find her in there,maybe dead from a heart attack or something, or somebody had done her in or whatever. But nothing. She wasn't there at all."

Sorotskidid find Fertuck's jacket and cell phone inside the truck. The keys for the loader were also there. The key for the truck was in the ignition.

"When I found that she wasn't in the truck I just thought, well somebody has abducted her."

Tuesday evening RCMP searched the area with a dog. So far, the Mounties have not called Fertuck's disappearance suspicious. But they said in a release "it is certainly out of character for her to be out of contact with her family".

Fertuck is five-foot-fourand 250 pounds, with greying brown hair and blue eyes.

She was last seen wearing grey sweatpants, a greysweater and white running shoes.
